=======================================
From: Mike '/m' <mike@barkto.com>


I ripped at 320kbps constant bitrate, joint stereo, using the LAME encoder.  I
would have ripped lossless if I had enough disk space.

I use CDex for ripping, and I set the error detection and correction to its
maximum ("Paranoia, Full").  CDex tells you, on a per-track basis, how many
errors it could not correct.   Out of about 2,000 CDs (26,000+
songs) I ripped, I'd say there were about 50 tracks that had uncorrectable
errors, usually 1 or 2 per track.

I had 4 CD drives running the ripping.  Two on my main PC (dual-CPU, 500MHz
Pentium 2 or 3), 515MB RAM.  Another on my notebook (500MHZ CPU (Pentium 2,
512MB), and another on a junker (probably a 400MHz Pentium something or other,
with 256 MB memory).   All were running Windows
2000.

on for audio CD ripping?  Does error correction make much difference during
ripping to MP3/WMA files?
